It Happens Only in India..... contd.

Coming back to Arjun Singh's celebrated silence: He had two alternatives, one that he had the prerogative to take Foreign Policy decisions or that he was issued a directive from the Centre. Digvijay Singh says that it was not Arjun Singh's call and the Centre says no such Directive was issued.

Here we have to keep the ruling legacy of India in mind, we are a nation where the subordinates are programmed to take orders, it would be very very audacious of someone to act on his own accord in such a vital matter.

What the whole episode as a synopsis implies: Neither Arjun Singh nor Rajiv Gandhi released Anderson, so either the District Collector, the Police Superintendent or the pilot hatched a conspiracy to get Anderson out? If that was the case,  then Gentlemen, Why are you in the first place sitting here as rulers and why did we choose such impotent weaklings?
Thank God we are done with the election of the President of India, otherwise Arjun Singh would have emerged as the most appropriate candidate for his disposition in the present situation !


Now that we are done with the Legislature and the Executive, we turn towards the judiciary, that put an American before hundreds of Indians. How does one explain this, love for dollar or the white skin? If the Supreme Court of a country fails to deliver justice then there is hardly a choice left for its citizens to go anywhere.

Why blame the then Government alone, the following governments of the Centre and the state be it that of BJP or any other, had equally insensitive roles to play.  The Vajpayee Government in fact awarded President's medal to the official of Union Carbide.

My conclusion from the episode:

First I am corrupt who elects such people to power, the next level is the administration and the police, then the Prime Minister and his Council of Ministers we are all a Team, a team of mercenaries.
